Shading in Cell Not Contained to Cell
I have a Table in my Word 2016 .docx...I have colored various cells in the table down a single column. Looks fine on the screen but when printed or saved as a PDF the color in the cell bleeds (continues down beyond the cell). I have attempted splitting the table but the issue persists.
Any ideas on what I'm dealing with and how to fix?

Thank you Bill,
I have attached the doc file. I will post the pdf next.
to generate the PDF I simply "save as" and choose the .pdf extension.
I thought that may be where the issue was but when I simply print the word doc it prints exactly like what the pdf is showing.

Forgot to add files...here they are.
Thank you...A lot of work went into this and I'm coming up against a deadline...
I'm just perplexed.

Seems to be a bug in Word 2016 *gulp*.
I was able to easily recreate it in a new blank doc here. I suspect it has to do with the filled merged cell flowing across pages, but that's really no excuse.

I'm away from my computer now, but wonder if simply doing a "save as" in an earlier version of Word would fix the issue.
Thoughts?

A simple "save as" in an earlier version of Word did the trick...less than 5 minutes of hassle...
